BeamSite: Real-Time Treatment Visualization for the Radiation Oncology Team
Modern radiation oncology relies on multiple layers of precision, from imaging and treatment planning to immobilization and motion management. Yet despite these advances, one critical aspect of treatment has traditionally remained invisible during delivery itself: the radiation beam.
BeamSite changes that.
Using Cherenkov imaging technology, BeamSite enables clinical teams to visualize radiation directly at the patient surface in real time. By capturing faint optical emissions generated as radiation interacts with tissue, the system provides a live visual representation of beam delivery throughout each fraction.
This added visibility gives therapists, physicists, and radiation oncologists a new layer of treatment awareness during beam-on time.
Beyond Patient Positioning
While technologies such as Surface Guided Radiation Therapy (SGRT) help monitor patient setup and motion, BeamSite focuses on visualizing the treatment delivery itself.
With BeamSite, clinical teams can:
Confirm beam placement instantly
Monitor for unexpected patient movement during treatment
Review treatment recordings for quality assurance and workflow analysis
Support communication between therapists, physicists, and physicians using shared visual treatment data
Supporting Clinical Workflow
BeamSite is designed to integrate into existing radiation oncology workflows without adding ionizing radiation, setup time, or staff burden. The immediate visual feedback during treatment helps teams uncover trends, improve consistency, and elevate overall treatment quality. Recorded treatment sessions can also support process review with patients, aid staff training, and support investigation of unexpected treatment events.
For radiation oncology teams focused on precision, consistency, and patient safety, BeamSite introduces a new approach to treatment visualization, transforming radiation delivery from something inferred to something that can actually be seen.
